Hamlet Micure Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGEGHIJKLKMNOPQ ORSST| In a lingering fever many visions come to you | A |
| I was in the little house again | B |
| With its great yard of clover | C |
| Running down to the board fence | D |
| Shadowed by the oak tree | E |
| Where we children had our swing | F |
| Yet the little house was a manor hall | G |
| Set in a lawn and by the lawn was the sea | E |
| I was in the room where little Paul | G |
| Strangled from diphtheria | H |
| But yet it was not this room | I |
| It was a sunny verandah enclosed | J |
| With mullioned windows | K |
| And in a chair sat a man in a dark cloak | L |
| With a face like Euripides | K |
| He had come to visit me or I had gone to visit him | M |
| I could not tell | N |
| We could hear the beat of the sea the clover nodded | O |
| Under a summer wind and little Paul came | P |
| With clover blossoms to the window and smiled | Q |
| Then I said What is 'divine despair ' Alfred | O |
| Have you read 'Tears Idle Tears' he asked | R |
| Yes but you do not there express divine despair | S |
| My poor friend he answered that was why the despair | S |
| Was divine | T |
